Chords

She plays in D-Standard but it's not necessary to tune down, so I tabbed it in E-Standard. (You can transpose it 2 steps down to play the Dm in the bridge as an open chord if you want) She never uses a pick btw. [Intro]

A       F       G        A
~~~humming~~~

[Verse]

              F
When I was young

                      A
Coach called me the tiger ~~~humming~~~

           F
I always had

                        A
A knack with the danger ~~~humming~~~

[Chorus]

C                     G            F
Living in fear in the year of the tiger

C                     G            F
Living in fear in the year of the tiger

C                     G            A
Living in fear in the year of the tiger

[Verse]

           F
Italian shoes Like these rubes know the difference

              G
Suitcase of cash In the back of my stick shift

          F
I had to be the best of the bourgeoisie

           G               G7
Now my kingdom for a cup of coffee

[Chorus]

C                     G            F
Living in fear in the year of the tiger

C                     G            F
Living in fear in the year of the tiger

C                     G            F
Living in fear in the year of the tiger

C                     G            A
Living in fear in the year of the tiger
